We rented a car to take a trip from Dallas to Indiana this past weekend...
I declined the Toll option since we weren't using the car in Texas (which was $12/day for each day regardless of whether or not you had any toll charges) but didn't think about the route to get to the interstate...ended up taking the 121 Sam Rayburn tollway to 75 to get to Oklahoma and we went through 4 toll stations (all automated so there are no tellers where you can pay cash)...according to the fine print in my rental contact, if you don't get the toll option, you will be charged a $15 administrative fee for each toll charge up to $90 for the duration of the rental agreement plus the actual toll charges...the actual toll charges were probably around $7 or 8 I think...
They did let me add the toll coverage when i returned the car which ended being $70 after taxes...
After returning the car, I just realized I could have pulled the toll tag from my car and saved $70...DERP!!!!
